One of the bad things about Madison Square Garden being our home court is that all other players love playing there and turn their games up when they play at the Garden so we always have to be at our best when we're at home. Lets also not forget that it's the place that Steph and Dell wanted to play. They were hoping that we would draft him cause they wanted him in New York and playing for MDA.

This dude is zig zagging and shooting lights out against the entire league, what the heck is galloway going to do

yeah i know, curry on another level right now but i remember last season seeing flashes of galloway disrupting his shooting. So i'm sure he's stuyding him. Fish better not put Calderon on curry.

Anyway, i have faith that galloway is gonna defend curry very well. He does a good job of staying with his man and disrupting their shots with his gorilla like arms. Plus, he protects the ball better than curry who can be turnover prone sometimes. I'm looking for galloway to seize the opportunity

I doubt curry will scoring 30+ and have his with way galloway. I'll give him about 25

Galloway is my dude the Chef Curry stopper. ok, maybe i'm too optimistic
Langston Galloway has boosted the Knicks with clutch transition defense

These Langston Galloway defensive tracking numbers are kinda nuts

I won't be surprised if lance is guarding curry at times too

I doubt it.

Porzingis: 12pt, 11 reb
Melo: 28pt, 2 ast, 4 reb
Curry: 42, 6 ast, 3 reb
Greene: 8pts, 12 ast, 11 reb

I hope you are wrong,

we can win if KP and Melo have 30+ point each, but most important KP and Rolo should block every Warrior for 2 times to broke their spirit

See i don't think the way we'll win is if Melo and KP go off cause they'll have their good games, we can win if the rest of the team plays well. We need DW and AA and LT and Gallo and Rolo and........................i think you get it.

And we need to stay out of foul trouble....that means you KP6

I think we'll see KP, Melo and LT guarding Dray depending who's on the court.
